Hi all, as you know, had my section on 23rd May. Had an infection after which caused heavy bleeding , but after antibiotics thats all cleared up now.
Im still bleeding, lightly, but when ive been walking about , or running after my 18 month old...i start to bleed quite heavy again ! sorry tmi !!

I was sterilised whilst having the section, and just wondered how long people bled for after section...or sterilisation.

thanks all in advance !

i have had three csections and i bled on and of for about the first three weeks

you really should still be resting as much as possible. you may bleed a bit longer than normal as you had an infection but don't worry to much now if your still bleeding, as long as it's not clumps/lumps, talk about it at your 6/sex week check
